The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot '60-'66 Trucks 1962 chevy k20 235 6 cylynder engine color

hello , does anyone know the origanal color of this engine

The one in my 61 was blue. My buddy talked me into painting it orange "so it would think it was a V-8."

This question is almost like asking if anyone know what is the one true religion. You will get all sorts of answers and all sorts of reasoning, but you will not get any GM documentation.

Here is a 1996 write-up by a VCCA expert - note that still-living VCCA experts disagree with some/most of the colors in the article, but they do not have any documentation. I trust them ("as if") because they have seen more unmolested 20-year older engines than the author of the article (yeah, right).
